The Ridge Reading plan

Welcome to The Ridge Daily Reading Plan. Over the next twelve months, you will walk through the big
story of the Bible in roughly chronological order. You will see creation, the fall, God’s covenant
promises, the rise and fall of kings, the voices of the prophets, the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus,
and the birth of the early church. This plan is designed to take about 10  minutes a day.
Most days are focused on a single chapter or a short passage. The readings move in chronological order
as much as possible so you can follow the flow of God’s story from beginning to end.
 Each day includes three simple prompts:
1. Read – Slowly read the passage for the day.
2. Reflect – Ask what the passage reveals about God, people, and God’s rescue story.
3. Live It – Decide on one specific way you will respond in obedience or trust.
Using the Reflect and Live It Prompts You can use a journal, your phone notes, or a notebook to write a
short response each day. You do not need to write a lot. A sentence or two is enough:
• Reflect: “Today I see that God is...” or “This shows me that people tend to...” or “This reminds me that Jesus...”
• Live It: “Today I will trust God by...” or “I will obey by...” or “I will encourage someone by...”

If you miss a day or even a week, do not quit. Just start again with today’s date. The goal is not to
check every box, but to build a habit of meeting with God in His Word.

Our Prayer for You
Our prayer is that as you walk through Scripture with The Ridge this year, you will know God more
deeply, see Jesus more clearly, and be transformed by the Holy Spirit in everyday life.
